Chapter 331 - Danger of exploding anytime
The black fog bubbled up in the cave, but it remained in the same spot and didn’t venture out.
When it heard what Sima You Yue said, its bubbling became even more intense.
“Who am I?” That voice was filled with puzzlement, and only said after a long while, “It’s been a long time since I thought of this question. It seems a bit hard to recall.”
“How long have you been sealed in this place?” Sima You Yue looked at that black fog and said with a tint of fear.
“How long? I can’t remember.” Black Fog said, “I can’t even see the rising or setting of the sun. It’s natural that I won’t know how many years I’ve been here. It could be a few thousand years, it could be a few tens of thousands.”
Sima You Yue’s heart shook. He had been sealed here for so long that he couldn’t even tell how long it had been. Just how many years had it been!
“Who am I? How long have I been here?”
That black fog repeated that line over and over, and as if it had suddenly gone insane, it started to roll over itself like a wave. A huge gust of wind suddenly blew through the cave, as if it was about to blow Sima You Yue away.
The skeletons that were in front of the black fog were blown by the wind and thrown against the walls, disintegrating into ashes.
Sima You Yue’s face turned pale. If she was thrown into the wall, would she die immediately?!
She covered her face with both hands and cried out loudly, “Senior, you are you! It doesn’t matter what your name is or what your identity used to be. This isn’t important, the most important thing is that you are who you are!”
“I am who I am?” The voice quieted and the wind died down. “I am who I am… I am who I am… you’re right. I am who I am.”
Sima You Yue saw that the black fog had calmed down, and carefully lowered her arms.
She had wanted to ask why it had been locked down here, but she didn’t expect that it would go crazy after she said one or two sentences. She definitely didn’t dare to ask any further.
“Increase the intensity of your flame a bit.” Black Fog said.
Sima You Yue knew what he wanted to do, however, she knew that she could not refuse. She obediently produced another fireball and sent it in front of that black fog.
“Fire…” Black Fog went into a daze as he watched that fireball, causing Sima You yue to think that this guy had already gone insane.
However, she did not dare to interrupt him. Otherwise, she would definitely die if he released another crazy gust of wind.
After a very long while, that Black Fog appeared to have watched it long enough. It was only then that he split the flame into tiny balls of flames and sent them to the four corners.
It could be that the flames had caused her to think of something, which made Sima You Yue feel that this was something normal.
“Senior, were you the one who brought me here?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Yes.” Black Fog replied, “The aura on your body is very similar to mine. I can feel it.”
Sima You Yue appeared to have felt it too. The Dark aura in her body was very similar to Black Fog’s.
“Oh, why did I want to bring you here?” Black Fog was muddled again.
“Thank you, senior, for rescuing me.” Sima You Yue said with gratitude.
“Yes, you should thank me. Otherwise, every one of you would be dead now.” Black Fog said.
“Every one of us?”
“A little beast came in here before, I still remember his aura.” Black Fog said.
Sima You Yue understood that the little beast he was talking about was Halcyon. Thinking of how a Sacred Beast was relegated to being called a little beast, Sima You Yue secretly smirked.
“Thank you, Senior.” Sima You Yue thanked again.
“You wanted to see me.” Black Fog said.
“Eh?” Sima You Yue was stunned. This guy switched topics too quickly.
“I can feel it. You wanted to see me, and you have a similar aura to the one I have. That’s why I let you come.” Black Fog said.
“It was Senior who let me come over?” Sima You Yue cried out with shock.
“Otherwise, how far do you think you all would have been able to get?” Black Fog snorted coldly.
Sima You Yue thought of how Old Man Devil and Halcyon had said that it was extremely complicated and dangerous below. However, when they had come, they didn’t encounter that much danger. So it was was because he had felt her aura similar to his that he had limited those dangers.
However, even if this was the case, her body had been wrecked. If it wasn’t for him, she might not have been able to withstand the pressure.
“However, you’re not too bad.” Black Fog said, “You were able to walk more than halfway through the pressure. You didn’t even complain at all.”
“Thank you Senior for your praise and assistance.” Sima You Yue said.
“You shouldn’t thank me. You should thank the aura in you. If not for it, even if I brought you here, you would be the same as that pile of bones.” Black Fog said straightforwardly.
Sima You Yue looked at the pile of bones and said, “These are people who have unwittingly entered this place like I did?”
“Some were, some were not.” Black Fog said. “Many of them have come because they plotted against me. Few of them are people from this continent. However, is it so easy to plot against me? Since they’ve come, they should stay and accompany me! Ha ha ha-”
Sima You Yue’s hair stood on edge as he laughed. It was as if she was in the same boat as that pile of bones.
She glanced again at that pile of bones. It turns out that these people did not enter this place on accident, but many had charged in here. It was a pity that they had lost their lives in the end.
These people probably never expected that the pressure he could exert would be so powerful!
“Speak, why did you want to meet with me?” Black Fog was still a bit berserk, and a bit of black fog drifted away from the main body and was tumbling around the cave. It looked similar to the fog that they had encountered before.
Those broken off clouds of black fog blew across her body, and Sima You Yue was so afraid that she didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. She was afraid that she might accidentally touch the black fog and disintegrate.
“I don’t know why I’m looking for you either.” Sima You Yue said truthfully.
Crimson Flame just wanted her to meet him. He didn’t tell her what she was supposed to do or ask for.
“Huh ? Then why did you want to meet me?” Black Fog asked with surprise. Those clouds of black fog laughed along with him, letting out high pitched laughter.
“It’s just that I felt that our aura was similar, so I came over.” Sima You Yue said.
“Similar aura… similar aura…” Black Fog repeated this phrase and suddenly thought of something. He said animatedly, “Similar aura, only people from my clan have similar aura!”
After speaking, he didn’t wait for Sima You Yue to react before a cloud of black fog entered her body.
Sima You Yue felt that she had been frozen still, and her body was no longer listening to her commands. She could only feel an ice cold aura flowing around inside her.
“Strange, strange!” After the black fog had drifted inside her body, it cried out in shock.
“Se- senior, what- what is strange?” Sima You Yue was so cold that her teeth were trembling, and she couldn’t speak properly.
Black Fog didn’t speak. He merely continued to explore her body. After a long while, he finally said one thing, “No wonder.”
“Whoosh-”
The black fog left her body and she immediately felt her body come back to life.
“A light-devil’s physique. I never thought that someone in this world would still have a physique like this.” Black Fog encircled Sima You Yue and said, “It’s a pity that your body is in danger. Because you were touched by my aura, your body is in danger of exploding anytime.”
